ifp	Von Allen Randall v. United States	25-7391	Fifth Circuit, No. 25-10841 Judgment: February 12, 2026	Adam Ryan Nicholson	Office of the Federal Public Defender 525 South Griffin Street, Suite 629 Dallas, TX 75202	[Petition] [Appendix]	Question(s) presented QUESTIONS PRESENTED I. The Texas statutes defining Petitioner’s prior offenses explicitly prohibit conduct outside the ACCA’s “serious drug offense” and “violent felony” definitions. The lower courts applied the ACCA anyway because Petitioner did not prove to the courts’ satisfaction that Texas had prosecuted and convicted someone for the exact same crime whose actual conduct fell outside the relevant definitions. When analyzing a state statute under the categorical approach, and that statute is explicitly broader than the relevant federal definition, does the defendant bear a burden of proving that the state had convicted someone for non-qualifying conduct? I. Whether 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) comports with the Second Amendment? 1

Whether the parsimony principle of 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) permits a sentencing court to treat a defendant’s history of childhood sexual trauma as both non-mitigating and indirectly aggravating? 2. Whether treating a defendant’s childhood sexual abuse as indirectly aggravating involves reliance on an improper sentencing factor? 1
